No, I didn't just ingest psilocybin but I did give some thought to how studying mushrooms is a lot like studying the art of software development. #softwaredevelopment #mushrooms #mastery fireproofsocks.medium.com/mushrooms-and-…

I just released a little #elixir package for calculating permutations: hexdocs.pm/permutation/re… #elixirlang #opensource

A blurb about inspecting your #ecto database schemas in your #elixir app using a new #opensource package: fireproofsocks.medium.com/inspecting-ect…

Another little #elixir package: hexdocs.pm/xfile I wanted a reusable way to recursively list files and filter them, so now in a spooky nod to 90s television, we have Xfile. #opensource The truth is out there!

Some more details about the Xfile package: fireproofsocks.medium.com/xfile-a-better… #elixir #bash #opensource

I have to call bullshit on the idea that all software changes must be small and incremental. #agile #softwaredevelopment #IPCCReport fireproofsocks.medium.com/the-myth-of-sm…

I finally had to write an article about #string #encoding and #unicode fireproofsocks.medium.com/string-encodin…

Chapter 5 of William MacAskill's "Doing Good Better" is titled "The Best Person Who Ever Lived Is an Unknown Ukranian Man". Today I learned how Viktor Zhdanov saved tens of millions of lives with his work to eradicate smallpox. #History #TIL #altruism #Ukraine️ 🇺🇦

DNS has been down for the Guidebox API @ api-public.guidebox.com for almost a week (!!!), so I suspect it's a legal issue and not a technical one. I see no status update anywhere, they have not responded to emails from paying customers. I ask the Twitterverse. #guidebox #wtf

I have released a ew version of Pockets for easily working with ETS and DETS tables in Elixir: hexdocs.pm/pockets/ It includes filter/2 and reject/2 functions for editing tables in place. #elixir #softwaredevelopment

I put together some thoughts about #programming and #deprogramming and somehow a diatribe about #democracy in peril framed by a trip to the ER for a heartbeat gone wild.

Some thoughts on using #elixir for #dataengineering and a bit of why #Serverless can be a nightmare. semaphoreci.com/blog/efficienc… Namedropping Vody for Stephanie Horbaczewski

When it comes to software, there is no such thing as a "perfect solution." The most recent post by Fireproof Socks explains why a small team of Elixir engineers can outperform a much larger one. bit.ly/3U3GFNZ

Elon was worried about how many bot accounts were on Twitter... and then he held an "election" easily manipulated by them to justify re-instating an #AmericanLoser and #RussianTool. Is Elon also in the pay of the Russians as they export their misinformation and kleptocracy?

❗Vanguard just pulled out of the Net Zero Asset Managers initiative in a move that essentially aligns the firm with climate deniers. Enough is enough. Vanguard needs to find new business models or new customers. #WTFVanguard ctt.ec/cfc1h+
